Pair FlightBox Pro with a tablet mount from Guardian Avionics, Air Gizmos, or RAM and your favorite EFB app to create a powerful MFD for the fraction of the cost of traditional systems.

Dual-Band ADS-B

FlightBox Pro includes a two ADS-B receivers, one for each of the two frequencies used for ADS-B. This allows FlightBox Pro to receive the full set of traffic and weather data.

Features:

FIS-B Weather:

METARs

TAFs

AIRMETs

SIGMETs

PIREPs

Winds / temps aloft

FIS-B Data:

TFRs

NOTAMs

Special use airspace updates

Traffic:

Direct traffic from 1090-ES equipped aircraft

Direct traffic from UAT equipped aircraft

Rebroadcast TIS-B radar traffic from FAA ground towers

Rebroadcast ADS-R traffic from FAA ground towers

Please be aware that FAA policy limits rebroadcast traffic data to those aircraft participating in the ADS-B system. If your aircraft is not equipped with an ADS-B Out system the ground tower network will not provide you with complete traffic data.

FlightBox Pro is an ADS-B Receiver and does not provide ADS-B Out services required for the 2020 mandate.

WAAS GPS*

The built-in WAAS GPS provides precise position data to your EFB application. With the dash-mount antenna the GPS fix is typically 5 - 3 meters. With a dorsal mount external antenna the fix can be as precise as 1 meter.

The GPS generates updates at 10 Hz (10 per second) which is twice as frequent as the FAA requirement for official WAAS position sources. GPS data includes:

Latitude / Longitude

GPS Altitude

Ground Speed

Ground Track

Horizontal Accuracy

Vertical Accuracy

Satellite Visibility

AHRS*

The built in attitude sensors in FlightBox Pro provide inertial data which your EFB application can use to drive a virtual attitude indicator or synthetic vision display. AHRS data includes:

Pitch

Roll

Slip / Skid

G force

Rate of turn

Barometric Altimeter*

The onboard barometric altimeter provides cabin altitude data to your EFB application. This can be used as a backup altitude source. In pressurized aircraft, the data can be used to provide alerts / alarms in the event of a depressurization.

Antennas

The FlightBox system ships with a set of ADS-B and GPS antennas suitable for mounting inside the aircraft. The ADS-B antennas can be mounted in a side window. The GPS antenna should be mounted on the glare shield or in some other location with an unobstructed view of the sky. External ADS-B and GPS antennas may be connected to the system. Your installer will need to fabricate appropriate cabling to connect with the SMA jacks on the FlightBox Pro.

For ADS-B, Open Flight Solutions recommends the use of standard L-Band transponder / DME antennas. These should be mounted at least four (4) feet from any transponder, DME, or UAT transmission antenna.

External GPS antennas may be powered or passive. The FlightBox Pro GPS receiver has been tested with the AeroAntenna AT575-9 but should work with most standard aviation GPS antennas.

Per the FAA approval, installation of FlightBox Pro should generally be considered a minor change in type design. The installation must be completed (or signed off by) a licensed A&P mechanic or repair station. The installation process typically takes one hour if the system will use internally-mounted antennas. Connections to externally-mounted antennas typically add one to two additional hours.

FlightBox Pro requires its own 2 amp circuit protective device - either a fuse or a circuit breaker. The installation should be conducted in accordance with standard practices for avionics.

* GPS, AHRS, and altitude functions are for advisory / situational awareness purposes only. FlightBox Pro may not be used to replace any primary or required instrument, and may not be used as your primary means of navigation for IFR operations.
